    Radiation is everywhere. Comes from the ground, comes from the sky, its in the water, everywhere!

    A Sievert is the measure of the radiation dose to tissue 1 Sievert = 1 J/kg = 1 m2/s2 1 mrem = 10 μSv A Becquerel is the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second. 1 Bq = 1 s−1

    You would have to eat somewhere in the neighborhood of 13 lbs. of Brazil nuts per minute to equal the dose rates experienced at the site boundary

    last I heard it was 821 mrem/hr at the site boundary; considering that anything about background levels at the site boundary is usually a cause for alarm, its quite troubling. Even my father, with 20+ in the industry, said "holy shit!" when he heard the radiation levels http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_equivalent_dose Wow, twice that of Brazil nuts. Whoop de fucking do. Nice job with the media there. I don't follow?

    The average human receives background radiation doses of around 300 mrem per year. The current federal (USA) occupational limit of exposure per year for an adult is not to exceed 5,000 millirems above the 300 mrem background dose. Doing the math, a US nuclear plant employee would get a years worth of dose in 6 hours just standing at the outer fence boundary :excl: :excl: And again, if you're at the outer fence boundary you shouldn't be reading anything above background. They're not out of the woods yet, but the worst seems to be over.

    Thankfully all of the reactors are completely shut down; the problem now is dissipating the residual heat from the reactor vessels

    Photoshop maybe ? I see no reason for a ute, unless they would want to get on the australian market and compete with Holden Not a shop; this thing was caught flinging around the 'Ring

    Definitely a lot easier, especially multiple times *rubs leg*

    Fucking really people? Felons can't own a gun, neither can people found guilty of domestic violence, and substance addicts, like they are going to follow the law anyway! Yeah with current gun laws I really don't see the point of a CCW permit. All the people you don't want to buy a gun already can't (legally)!
